What is a "trinket"?

A trinket is a small, decorative object that is typically of little value or importance. Trinkets are often used to decorate clothing or accessories, such as purses, hats, or keychains, or as decorative items for the home. They are usually ornate and designed to be eye-catching, and can be made from a wide range of materials, including metal, glass, plastic, and even natural materials like shells or stones. While trinkets may not have any practical use, they are often treasured for their sentimental or aesthetic value and can serve as reminders of special occasions or people.
